Hi!
Which printer do you use?
Check in the transaction spad which printer and printerdriver you use. Dobbleclick on the printerdriver and check which codepade is assigned.
I think it has to be one of the following codepages:
8600     Thai Codepage ISO988/2533
8604     Microsoft Windows 874 for Thai
8611     Thai Printer Codepage 1 (EPSON ESC/P2)
8616     Printer HPLJIIID (Thai)
8617     Thai Postscript printing
8634     Thai Printer codepage (THSAPWIN)
Pleas try this.

PO print preview displays incorrect setting in decimal places

Dear Experts
Please help me on the following condition.
I have a problem in print preview of a PO. It displays the incorrect setting for decimal place in currency.
It shows USD 1.404,00 whereby the amount should be USD 1,404.00
This only happens to a certain vendor that is doing PO for the first time from that country
Example:
I'm creating a PO for vendor 123. Vendor 123 is located in country A. No PO has been created for any
vendor in country A before. When I saved my PO, in print preview, the decimal setting is not correct.
But when I'm creating another PO, for vendor 234. Vendor 234 is located in country B. There have been
several POs created for vendors in country B before. When I saved my PO, in print preview, the decimal
setting is correct.
Both vendor 123 and vendor 234 is using currency of USD.
Is there any other setting with the vendor master in regard with the currency decimal setting for each
country for the vendor? Or something that I've missed out?
Diagnosis:
I've checked with the user profiles->default-> decimal notation. It displays 1,234,567.89 correctly
I've also run OY04, but the decimal setting is correct.
Thank you
Regards
Syukri

this has nothing to do with print preview, it is just basic country setting (OY01) how a quantity and value is written on a PO to a vendor is country xyz.
German uses to comma to seperate decimals, while USA uses the point to seperate decimals
this would be the German version 1.404,00, and this the US version:: 1,404.00
so if an American sends a PO to a German vendor, then the document will show 1.404,00 so that the German can understand that he wants 1404. (and not 1000 times less)

Automatically prompt to save PDF when Print Preview for Purchase Order?

We recently upgraded to EP7.
I have an end user that does our PO's.
She swears up and down that she used to be able to go into any given PO, be it new or existing, and click on the print preview button. She says when she did this she was prompted to save or open the file.
She is set to PDF Preview when doing a print preview of the PO.
When we first upgraded the system, it was broken. When she tried to do this it would give you a Page Cannot Be Displayed error as in unable to find the page. We learned that there was an issue with name resolution within the system. We fixed this and now she can view the files as PDF when doing a print preview.
But she still claims it did not used to work like this that when she went to preview she would be prompted to save or view which worked great for her because she could click save, save it to her computer, and then email it to whomever she needed to send it to.
Seems clear to me that that when you do PDF Preview that an SAP browser session is created and sent to an web site (internal to SAP of course) to view the PDF. How can I tell SAP to give me the option to view or save?
For now the user is repeating the output when she needs to reprint another copy of the PO.
I should also say that we use Free PDF Creator. After setting her default printer to this, she says that now when she creates a new PO, it is working like before. So its possible that the prompt was the one from PDF Creator.
The user says she swears she could simply print preview would allow her to save local. I never saw it for myself prior to the upgrade.
Anyone seen this before or can offer any clues? Is there away to issue output at print preview?

How did you fix 'page cannot be displayed' error?
It looks like issue was at browser/pdfreader side.

FF windows goes blank white and freezes if I click a link in another application when Print Preview is open in FF (Win 7 64-bit)

Possible bug: FF dumps my session if I try to open an external link without closing print preview view. I had left the Print Preview screen open in FF after printing a web page, and I clicked a web link in another application, which would have normally opened in a new tab in FF. However, only the Print Preview window was displayed and when I clicked "Close", the FF window when all white. Back/backspace wouldn't work and I had to close FF and start a new session. I tested this a few times and it happens every time. I didn't think to test whether this happens in Safe Mode.

Text visibility only in Print Preview Mode & Should not come in Hard copy !

Hi All,
Is it possible to have a text which is visible only in Preview but should not come in Printed hard copy ?
Regards
Ajay

Hello,
In the FM OPEN_FORM of your print program you will be passing whether it's print preview or not in the Options parameter
i.e.
CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'
EXPORTING
FORM = 'Z_SAMPLE'
OPTIONS = itcpo
Just have an if statement in the SAPScript to only print this when that value = 'X' (i.e. IF &itcpo-tdpreview& eq 'X').
Regards,
Michael

User gets odd behavior when print previewing calendar

User calls with an odd problem.
She is using 32 bit IE 9 with our SP 2010 farm.
She goes to her department calendar. She sees events.
She presses Print Preview. No events are shown on the page.
She tries to export the data to Outlook - it tells her there is too much data.
She calls me.
I look - her default view is running into the resource throttling of the farm. So I try to create a unique view that only shows this week's events.
It works fine for me. Print preview and printing work as well.
When she looks at it in her browser, it works fine.
When she tries to print preview - no events show up on the preview page.
She tries to export from the new view - Outlook gets no events.
She is using IE9, so the IE7 comments in old threads are not relevant.
I set the web part configuration to 12 inches as one conversation suggestions. That doesn't help.
Does anyone else have any ideas of things to try?

When I look at the custom calendar within SharePoint Designer, the page has a ListView Web Part but not an XsltListViewWebPart.
I have tried several times to step through blog entries that describe editing the page, setting the view of the web part, etc. At one point whatever I tried turned the calendar view into a list view ... sigh. I created a new calendar view and made it
the default.
I have asked the user to try the print preview out today to see if it works for her after I created the new view.
The really odd thing about all of this is that at least 2 people don't have the problem with not seeing event data in the print preview.
It _almost_ sounds like some sort of machine specific issue she is having.
I wonder if I should ask the admins to repair Office 2010 on her machine to make certain the DLLs are all working properly.

Value pass to Smartform when Print/Preview

Hi,
I've a custom print program and smartform. All my selecting data codes are in Smartform. How do I let Smartform knows whether I'm doing a preview or print? What values should I pass into Smartform?
I'd like to achieve something as follows:-
IF print preview.
DO a.
ELSE.
DO b.
ENDIF.
Please share your thoughts.

Hi Brad,
Actually it is not the data selected that determines the print preview. Let me give a clearer scenario.
When user clicks Print Preview, user able to see a preview of the form. However, when user clicks Print, form is printed and some data is saved to a custom table.
Currently, both print preview and print will save the data to the custom table. So I'd like to know how to prevent data being saved into the custom table when user performs a print preview.
Thanks.

Getting a Spool Order when PRINT PREVIEW is selected

Hi!
In order to solve another problem I have, I need to find a solution to the following issue:
I need that when the user clicks on "Preview Print" at the print options of a SapScript, the system creates a spool order.
I'm getting a spool order only when the user PRINTs the form, not when the PRINT PREVIEW is selected.
There is a way to make the system to create a spool order, no matter if the user is printing or viewing the form???
Thanks in advance!
Bettina

Hi Bettina,
To achieve this before calling smartforms function module, declare below data.
data: gst_control_parameters type ssfctrlop,
        gst_output_options type ssfcompop,
        gt_job_output_info type ssfcrescl,
        gt_output_options type ssfcresop.
Now before calling the generated smartforms function module pass below parameters
gst_control_parameters-no_dialog = 'X'.
gst_control_parameters-getotf = 'X'.
gst_control_parameters-preview = 'X'.
Finally pass the parameter as below
control_parameters = gst_control_parameters
output_options = gst_output_options
job_output_info = gt_job_output_info
job_output_options = gt_output_options

Slitting text in lines when printing

I'm trying to send a string to the printer that is multiple lines. When printing on the paper the new line is ignored. How can I split my strings so that it will print on multiple lines? Thanks

You can split String with the split method. This method requires a parameter. For example if you wanna split the String every time you reach a space, use this as: string.split("[ ]");
if you wanna split it on ,'s, use string.split("[,]");
if you wanna use both, use string.split("[ ,]");
and so forth
Don't know if you ment this, your question wasn't really clear

Expanding Text Fields, only when printed

All,
I have a dynamic form that has many text fields for user input. These fields have a fixed height, however allow multiple lines beyond the visible area. I don't want these text fields to expand when the field is exited, but rather when the form is printed. The form is set up neatly on 7 pages, and I'd like it continue to be 7 when the user is working, however I'd like it to expand to accomodate the extra text upon printing.
How can I make it so when I print, the fields expand and the data flows onto the next page(s)?
Thanks!
Aaron

Thank you. I'll also have to make sure the subforms are set to "flowed" to make sure the expansion works appropriately, correct?
I can get everything to work correctly until my last page. When flowing the subform it compresses all of my fields and won't let me resize or move. Is there any easy way to resize a subform or adjust the locations of the fields within it?

Cannot print -- random text & blank pages when printing -- HP Color Laserjet 3600N

Apple Support Community,
I'm having some trouble connecting my computer and printer via a network connection. The printer functions fine among other computers (Mac, PC) connected via a network connection, but one particular MacBook is giving me trouble.
I can get the printer and laptop to connect, however when I try to print, it gets buggy on me. Usually it will print a page with some random text, followed by an excess amount of blank pages, then another page with text similar to the first. The text usually has information including font types and other formatting data, but not what was "printed."
I have tried to update the printer drivers, but I cannot get the printer utility to utalize them. After installing the most recent drivers, it will continue to suggest the generic laser printer drivers (1.0 verison), or I can choose other printer drivers (including "base" 3000 model drivers), but the 3600N drivers are not avalible on the list. Both the generic drivers and the HP drivers give me the random text upon printouts.
The laptop is a MacBook Pro with 10.6.
What is the best course of action to remedy the printer problem?
Thanks!
Jel.

Over the holidays, I spent a couple of hours on the phone with HP, a couple with Microsoft, and previously with Apple. Microsoft said they are working on updates, should be fixed by the release of Office 2008. Apple says there's a compatibility issue among the HP printer and Leopard and "some" programs. HP tells me it's an "old" printer (which they were happy to sell me in April 2007) and they may not release new drivers. HP also says Apple knows there are printing issues.
In the meantime, I'm using Pages and shopping for a new non-HP printer.

Text field overprints when printed - properties look OK - Help

I am having a problem with a text field in a form I created using Acrobat X Pro on a PC running Windows 7 Ultimate.
Document was originally created in MSWord 2007 and then converted to the form using the Form Wizard. I have the font selected as helvetica auto-size, but problem exists even if I change font size to 10 or 12. Everything in the text properties looks OK.
The form looks fine on screen, but when I go to print it the text either does not use the full field length and appears to be all scrunched up with letters on top of each other as though there is no kerning space between the letters.
First screen shot is of screen view. It looks fine. Second screen shot is what is looks like printed. Note, this is not a problem with my HP printer, as it happens even when I print to PDF.
Help!
Thanks,
Peter
